    I've only sent in one vintage card to be graded. It was a 1956 Hank Aaron white back. I had it pegged as a 7 before I sent it in, and that's exactly what it came back with:

    Kon_Jelly got a reaction from micky 8 in Does csg authenticate autographs?   
    That's not possible under CGC's witnessing method. Basically the item has to go from the signer directly to CGC, and if it's done at a convention only a CGC authorized witness can take that item from the signer back to be graded. The person with the forged item would be still holding their forged item, as there is no chance to swap it out. 
    That said, I don't know that it's necessary in the sports card world considering how many cards are pre-signed and authenticated by the manufacturers. That doesn't exist in the comics world.

    You say "horrible" but pretty much everyone else would say "accurate." 
    Those of us who know how to evaluate cards before sending in are rarely surprised by the grades CSG gives.

    Not every card pulled from a pack is a 10. In fact, I'd say most are not.

    Kon_Jelly got a reaction from I dont have one in CSG tough on surface   
    A grade of 4 on the surface isn't being harsh - that means there is some significant damage to the card's surface. You'll need to post some actual photos of the card and not just a cell phone picture of a computer monitor showing the scan.
